KastKing Spartacus Fillet Knife, Boning and Food Prep Knife, Razor Sharp 8Cr14 Stainless Steel Blade, 7 inch Fishing Knife

Purchased this based on some other good reviews and the price point. The grip is fairly large for my small hands, but it feels solid and sticky/textured enough not to slip with wet/slimy hands while working. The 7" has plenty of flexibility without being to limp. The blade fits well into the provided hard sheath and engages securely with an audible click when completely secured. The sharpness seems pretty good straight from the box. I'm looking forward to seeing how the edge retention holds up with continued use. So far, so good. I'd love to see this model in a smaller size like a 4-5" for more delicate work.

This is some good stuff here. Had my dogs shining and clean.

I really like this knife, I've filleted allot of fish with it now and it sharpens easily and love the way the blade flexes when I'm running it down the fishes back, but stiff enough to run through the fish to take fillet moving down the tail following it's back bone. Really a great knife, for a better price that at local stores.

I love everything about this knife but one thing. I think the handle is a little large for the shorter blade length. That said, the knife is very sharp, nicely coated for rust resistence, very non-slip grip, and nice fitting sheath. Overall, I am very pleased with this knife and will buy this model again.

I have not yet used the knife on fish, only received the product today, and purchased due to ability of sheath to be strapped to PFD while kayaking and inclusion of a lanyard hole in the grip for the ability to add a floating lanyard. Also, white handle will stay cool in the sun. Many reviewers state the knife is loose in the sheath and falls out. I was ready for this to be the case with mine and make necessary modifications, but none are needed. Maybe they are not pushing the knife all the way into the sheath, as mine locks in very firmly and takes a similar amount of force to remove just as my river shorty emergency knives that are hung upside down on my PFD. The handle is very comfortable and the edge is factory sharp and sliced through paper no problem with a quick test. The white handle appeared dirty but was actually micro fuzz from where the top and bottom of grip contacted the fuzz coated protective packaging insert. The packaging is very nicely done, up there with top shelf bottles of scotch. Eagerly awaiting putting it to use on the locally stocked trout and even those fish in the river my state says not to eat.

Sharp enough to serve purpose. Price really in my budget. Will order others

I recently bought this fillet knife and have been really impressed with the overall quality and performance. The blade is extremely sharp right out of the package and makes cleaning and filleting fish much easier and faster. It glides through fish smoothly with very little effort, and the flexible blade helps make clean cuts without wasting meat. Whether cleaning smaller panfish or larger fish, it handled everything very well. The handle feels comfortable and secure in your hand, even when it gets wet, which is important when cleaning fish for long periods of time. The knife also feels lightweight but still sturdy and well made. I used it on several fishing trips already and the blade has stayed sharp much longer than I expected. The material is very high quality as well. For the price, this is a great value and performs just as well as some more expensive fillet knives I’ve used before. It’s easy to control, sharp, durable, and gets the job done efficiently. I would definitely recommend this knife to anyone who enjoys fishing and wants a reliable fillet knife without spending a lot of money.

I use this every trip to cut whole mullet for bait. It’s large and fits larger hands well. Have not yet attempted to filet as I haven’t caught anything worth filleting. :(
